Summary
This document is an email chain from February to April 2020 between the US Attorney's Office (SDNY) and technical/forensic teams regarding the processing of evidence seized from Jeffrey Epstein's properties. Key issues discussed include technical difficulties linking emails to attachments (using 'flight records' as a hypothetical example), the large volume of data (over 1 million documents), and the inventory of devices seized from the NY Mansion and Virgin Islands. The emails also reveal that 9 hard drives found in the NY apartment were actually copies of drives seized during a previous 2007 search.

Also, we can host a conference call, but only up to six lines at a time — so if FBI has larger capacity than that let us know,

Following up on this from a month ago — I know we’re living in a different world than what existed four weeks ago, but
are you at all able to assist while working remotely? This has been pending for almost two months and we still don’t
have a very basic list of each device or item that was seized and searched, or for which of those we’ve received
materials. We’re happy to have a call if that would be useful, but as a first step the most basic thing we’re looking for is
the info in the template spreadsheet we sent earlier (that’s also attached).

Unfortunately I don’t think this is very helpful to us. Did you take a look at the example spreadsheet I sent on 2/24? The
excel file you sent has descriptions that don’t match up to the items listed in the search warrant returns (that we sent on 2/23), and we don’t have the 1B or CART numbers to be able to cross-reference. We also can’t tell what you mean by
“loose media” without a specific comparison to what was seized, we don’t know which items you’re referring to as
“Windows machines,” and we can’t tell whether the entirety of any particular item has been transferred, or just partial.
For example, it looks like we have gotten very, very few image files, which is surprising.

For example, it looks like we have gotten very, very few image files, which is surprising.
We have also encountered some very significant problems in trying to review the more than 1 million documents we
recently received:
- The data we’ve received has no way to put any emails and attachments together. So if an email says, “see the
attached flight records,” for example, we have no way of linking that up with the records themselves. Not only is
that a big problem for us in review, it’s going to be a huge problem for producing the documents to defense
counsel.
- The load file has no link to the native file, so when we load the data to the database, there’s no way to have the
native files show up in the database. Because many of the files are too large to open in the viewer, it effectively
means that there are many files that are completely invisible to us.
- Related, the control numbers in the load file don’t match up to the native files. So we have two sets of
numbers and no way to match up anything—that is, even if we were to try to go hunt down every individual
large file in the native files, it would be impossible.

So the data that we most recently got, we need to get in a form that addresses those issues, and we likely will need to
get a similar reproduction of the data we received a couple months ago. Otherwise we’re sifting through more than a
million documents without much rhyme or reason.

I’ve re-attached the spreadsheet we sent last week — I think that’s a good place to start in terms of our necessary record-
keeping, and we need that info at the very least, as well as anything else you think would be useful. Also attaching the
SW returns for reference. And again, we’re happy to meet up anytime and hash all this out in person if that’s useful.

Here is a listing of what I have already handed over in load files to the US Attorney’s Office for taint review. Some points
of clarification: There were 9 IDE hard drives found in the Manhattan apartment, they turned out to be 3 copies of 3
drives (9 drives in total) from a July 2007 search on one of his properties. I only processed 3 (as they were all copies). All
the loose media from the NY apartment is included. All the Windows machines from the NY apartment are included.
Only 2 Macs from NY and 1 from the Island are included.

I will have to more closely coordinate with whoever is loading up Relativity with the remaining Macs as the tool
they have to be processed with does not easily re-name the load files.

Totally understand about the network issues—we can relate. I do still think it will be helpful to all sit down together to
have an in-person discussion, to make sure everybody is on the same page. Are folks available for that next week? And what I think would be most helpful to facilitate that would be a spreadsheet of each separate device referenced in the
two search warrant returns, with columns for whether we’ve dumped the contents, whether they’ve been reviewed
and/or transferred, what portions were transferred, etc.

Something roughly like the attached, with any other categories you think would be useful — and the info on the attached
is mostly hypothetical, obviously, just as examples. That will help us fully understand what’s been reviewed, transferred,
and received so far, and what remains.

(Also just on the pictures, we do want copies of those as well, please including from the discs and the devices — I think
FBI was going to do an initial screen to make sure no CP, and since I think the answer was no, we’ll need to get those to
be able to review them as well.)

Sorry for the delayed response. They are tearing out our old network and giving us a new one, they mandated
we delete old stuff (about 400 TB worth). Now that they are working on replacing the network, we can do only
local work. I should be able to give you an accounting of what is what. I can say, off the top of my head, that all
windows based items from the NY search have been handed over as well as all loose media. The CDs from NY
only contained pictures, no documents. There are still some Apple items from NY that need to be produced. As
far as the Island stuff goes, the 1st item on your spreadsheet, the "kitchen" mac has been produced. Still
working on the rest.

Based on the attached search warrant returns, it looks like from the New York mansion (the PDF) there are
approximately 40 devices that would have storage (computers, hard drives, thumb drives, etc.) and that’s not even
counting at least 60+ CDs. And then from the Virgin Islands (the Excel spreadsheet), at least more than 25 devices,
including multiple servers / server racks.

So we gotta know what we’ve already received, what remains, anticipated schedule, etc, and I know it’s a lot of moving
pieces on all sides so wanted to loop in everybody at once. The case team will be in California this coming week from
Tuesday through Friday, but then I think generally around the first week of March, which will hopefully be plenty of time
to schedule a productive meeting.

I’m not sure who’s the exact right person to ask this, so wanted to get everybody on one email chain about it — I have
the hard drive that [Redacted] dropped off that has new Epstein search warrant materials, but it looks like there are also old
materials (that I think we had previously received and uploaded??) on the hard drive, and so I’m not sure what’s new.

Just generally, and [Redacted] and I talked about this last week too, but it’s basically impossible for us to keep track of what
we’re getting, and what has been completed, without some kind of identification or labeling system, along with a list of
which devices have been extracted and downloaded.
we’re getting, and what has been completed, without some kind of identification or labeling system, along with a list of
which devices have been extracted and downloaded.
So for example on the hard drive currently, there are 38 folders labeled “loadFiles” through “37loadFiles” with a
modified date of 11/14/19, which I think we may have already previously received — but I’m not sure, because we
haven’t gotten any info on which folders match up to which devices, etc. And then there’s another folder titled
“NYC024362” that has a modified date of 1/27/20, so I think that may be the materials we hadn’t previously received?
That folder by itself has more than 600,000 items.

I don’t want to give [Redacted] anything that we’ve already previously received and uploaded, and I can’t tell from the folder
or file names whether everything on the drive is new, or whether just additional materials were saved onto it in addition
to what we already have. [Redacted], are you able to give us some guidance on this? Ultimately what we really need is a
spreadsheet of every device, whether it’s been dumped (or partially dumped), and then identifying that same info —
